Stage Gate Reviews

Independent assessments at the key decision points

Independent technical assessments at every project Stage Gate. Management receives objective information, free of internal bias, to advance to the next phase, or to halt a project that is not yet ready.

What we review

  • Maturity of scope and engineering
  • Quality and consistency of the master schedule
  • Cost estimates and contingencies
  • Risk management and updated register
  • Contracts, suppliers and supply chain
  • Team organization and project execution plan

Dispute Resolution

Impartial technical analysis for mediation and arbitration

We analyze the causes, liability and impacts of disputes in construction and engineering projects, and we produce objective, defensible technical evidence for mediation, conciliation or arbitration.

Most project disputes originate in poorly managed schedules, undocumented change orders or incorrect cost estimates. Our technical experience and understanding of contractual frameworks (FIDIC, NEC) allow us to pinpoint exactly what happened, when and why.

Analyses we perform

  • Delay and disruption: Impacted Baseline, TIA, Window Analysis
  • Quantification of cost and schedule impacts
  • Review and analysis of change orders
  • Liability analysis (FIDIC, NEC, EPC contracts)
  • Forensic schedule reconstruction

Our process

1

Evidence gathering

2

Chronological reconstruction

Timeline of events, interferences and causes of deviation.

3

Impact analysis

Technical quantification of time and cost impacts. SCL Protocol methods.

4

Technical report

A structured, defensible document oriented to the arbitration process.

5

Process support

Support during hearings and cross-examination.

Risk Management

Realistic contingencies based on data, not on gut feeling

We identify, quantify and mitigate schedule and cost risks using Primavera Risk Analysis and Monte Carlo simulation. We generate P50, P80 and P90 probabilistic ranges that the board can defend before any stakeholder.

What the analysis includes

  • Qualitative and quantitative risk register
  • Monte Carlo simulation on schedule and cost
  • Probability of meeting the deadline (P50, P80, P90)
  • Tornado charts: activities most critical to risk
  • Response plans and justified contingencies
  • Integration with the cost and schedule baseline

Methodology

1

Identification and register

Workshops with the team. Qualitative ISO 31000 register with probability and impact.

2

Quantitative modeling

Probability distributions per activity. Model setup in PRA.

3

Monte Carlo simulation

10,000+ iterations. Probability curves. P50, P80, P90 percentiles.

4

Sensitivity analysis

Tornado charts. Activities and risks with the greatest impact on the outcome.

5

Response plans

Mitigation, transfer and acceptance. Contingencies justified by the analysis.
